FunFest

Clearbrook hosted its annual FunFest event on Friday, September 21. The day is dedicated to fun for Clearbrook clients - which includes children and adults impacted by developmental/intellectual disabilities. Clearbrook President Anthony Di Vittorio spent the day in the dunk tank, submerged each time a client hit the bullseye. "This is one of my favorite days of the year," Di Vittorio stated. "The joy of our clients is contagious." Activities included a petting zoo, games, karaoke, a photo booth and much more. Everyone had a great time!

A special thank you to our volunteer groups and sponsors:

The Clearbrook Guardians, Jewel Osco, Walgreens, McDonald's, Paylocity, Astellas, Blue Frost Heating and Cooling, Camelot Illinois, Omron, Queen of Saints, RYCO Landscaping, UPS, and WOW.
